My Libraries Book Week

This is just a small snap shop of some of the things we did during our Book Week. Being a secondary school Librarian is my main job, but obviously I spend a lot of time doing things for the FCBG. Being a school librarian means though that I can work with the people who we are trying to promote reading to. I get to see first hand what works and what doesn't and get that instant gratification when you are able to create a new reader. All this helps with the work that I do at a National level.

Reasons

There are a number of reasons why I wanted to write this blog. There are probably too many to mention but the main ones are to give people a view of what it is going to be like to become the Chair of such an amazing charity, its also to share with you what the experience is like for me. I am shall we say a little nervous on whether I can do an amazing job - I really hope so!! - and as I have no idea of what to expect sharing my journey through the next year will hopefully be a very interesting experience.
I will try throughout the year to post about things that I have been involved in, things in the book world that happen - whatever these might be - and anything else linked to my role that might just interest people.
Anyway that's enough for the moment - please follow and I hope you, along with me will enjoy the ride!!
